Release notes
General limitations
This release has the following general limitations. Topics are listed in alphabetical
order.
Dolby operation with
Option DPE
For listening mode selections other than FULL or EX, clipping may
occur. For example, if the Dolby Digital input is 3/2 with full-scale test
tones and Stereo listening mode is selected, clipping will likely occur.
To avoid clipping, choose either compression mode, DLine or
DRF in CONFIG > Audio Input/Outputs > Dolby D (AC-3) Setup >
Dialnorm&DynRng.
When in Channel Mode 2/2 and Phantom Listening Mode, the Surround
Sound display (AUDIO tile) shows the Ls and Rs levels attenuated by 3 dB
instead of displaying at full amplitude for this channel mode/listening mode
combination.
When in Channel Mode 3/0 and 3-Stereo Listening Mode, the Surround
Sound display (AUDIO tile) shows the C level attenuated by 3 dB instead
of displaying at full amplitude for this channel mode/listening mode
combination.
The Dolby E/Dolby Digital decoder will pass through PCM audio at 48 kHz
frequencies or less. Audio frequencies above this will not pass through and
may cause noise or distortion on both the bars and the audio outputs. If PCM
audio at frequencies greater than 48 kHz is used, choose either AES A or
B as the input source.
Firmware update to
version 3.X
The
fi
rst time the instrument
fi
rmware is updated to version 3.X, the upgrade
process must be run twice in order for the
fi
rmware to be properly installed.
Subsequent upgrades will require only one attempt to upgrade the
fi
rmware.
If you are updating
fi
rmware from 2.X to 3.X via USB, after the instrument
reboots, you may have to remove and reinsert the USB
fl
ash drive to complete
the update.
Firmware update with any
Dolby option
When updating the instrument
fi
rmware to 3.0.X and Option DPE is installed, do
not cycle the instrument power until the Power-on diagnostic screen is cleared
and the User interface is fully running. If the Instrument Fault LED is lit (red
Power/Standby button), an additional instrument reboot is required. This may be
performed by pressing the Power/Standby button. When the upgrade is complete,
the Dolby
fi
rmware version will be 2.1.2.1. You can con
fi
rm the version on your
instrument from the CONFIG > Utilities > SW Version menu.
